DuSIM – O-CU Midhaul Solutions

The P8826S DuSIM emulates the O-DU and UE traffic over the F1 interface to validate O-CU functionality and performance.

Sub system simulated O-Gnb, O-DU
Test types O-CU southbound
Interfaces supported F1

Emulation tools for verifying disaggregated 5G and ORAN infrastructure

Keysight ORAN solutions precisely emulate all major ORAN components: RU, CU/DU, 5G Core, and RIC. They enable functional, performance, and interoperability testing with real-world traffic and protocols. Replace 5G network parts with known-good components to isolate performance/conformance. Capture/replay traffic to validate open fronthaul, F1, E2, and core interfaces with ORAN Studio. Verify timing/MIMO sync (Time Sync Analyzer), emulate 5G core (CoreSIM), test NFV (LoadCore), or perform full RAN validation (DuSIM, RuSIM, RIC emulators).

Emulate every ORAN component

Simulate O-RUs, O-DUs, O-CUs, and the 5G Core with protocol-conformant behavior across fronthaul and midhaul interfaces to validate network interoperability and integration.

Generate realistic user and control traffic

Create thousands of concurrent voice, data, and signaling sessions with support for mobility, quality of experience (QoE) modeling, and protocol stack behaviors to stress the RAN under real-world conditions.

Capture and replay fronthaul interfaces

Record and play back live fronthaul traffic using Open RAN Studio to verify time-sensitive behavior, identify regressions, and debug interface-level performance issues with high fidelity.

Verify interface and protocol compliance

Run automated conformance tests for open fronthaul, F1, E2, and other ORAN interfaces to ensure standards adherence, vendor interoperability, and test repeatability.

Sub system simulated O-Gnb, O-RU, O-DU, O-CU, RIC, Core Network, RF air interface
Test types O-DU southbound, O-DU+O-CU southbound, O-CU southbound, O-DU northbound, Near RT RIC/xApps, Non-RT More…
Interfaces supported OFH, F1, E2, A1, O1, Backhaul, RF air interface

The P8826S DuSIM emulates the O-DU and UE traffic over the F1 interface to validate O-CU functionality and performance.

Highlights

DuSIM is a DU emulator to validate O-RAN O-CU functionality, performance and conformance over the midhaul interface. DuSIM is scalable up to hundreds of O-DUs and thousands of UEs and is targeted to O-CU vendors who want to test the scaling and performance of their architecture. This software-only solution (hardware optionally available) supports both NSA and SA topologies.

  • Validate O-RAN O-CU functionality, performance and conformance over the midhaul interface
  • Targeted to O-O-CU vendors who want to test the scaling and performance of their architecture
  • Highly scalable: up to hundreds of O-DUs and to thousands of UEs, up to tens of Gbit/s of throughput
  • Software-only solution (hardware optionally available)
  • NSA/SA support
